The hospitality of Oman was very friendly, and he was very informative of the places to go and gave us a few leaflets out for the buses and tubes. the breakfast was lovely, everything was fresh and clean,and the golden retriever dog Lucky was...

Highly recommended. This B&B is located in a quiet street where you can enjoy some peaceful sleep. But at the same time is one block from a major street very well connected by many buses with all the main attractions. Also the overground train is located about 10min walk distance. The breakfast was great, the building is a restored old... More

We chose Kandara as we were visiting friends just around the corner and wanted somewhere quite near the station. Although some people said it was a long walk, it can't have taken much longer than 10 mins so no issue for us. The guesthouse is on a very quiet road so perfect if you want peace and quiet, but has... More

My girl friend and I stayed here to get a few things done in London and see some sights. It was convenient to get into London by the buses, especially using Google maps with the wifi at Candor. The place was really clean and the breakfast in the morning was good. Staff were very pleasant. All for a reasonable price.... More

My husband and I went down to London for a few days holiday. We got to the guest house very easily on a bus from Kings Cross (bus stops at the top of their road). The road is tree lined, quiet and very pleasant, and the house - Georgian in style I think - was very tidy and well maintained,... More

We stayed at the Kandara for three nights. My husband was there on business and I came along as the Angel is such a great place to go out. The guest house was just a short trip on the bus - of which there are plenty- to the main strip of bars and restaurants. The staff are very friendly. The... More

Having stayed at Kandara off & on for around a year whilst working in Old St offices from Mon-Fri, I can't fault the place. It's clean & very well run with friendly owners who are really helpful. as a contractor working in London it's sometimes difficult to find as contractors say "good digs" but staying at the Kandara made working...
